Domain Parking occurs when a domain does not have content. Domain parking can be monetized when registrars put advertising content on pages that have been registered but do not yet have original content. Registrants can also participate in monetization via domain name parking through an agreement with their registrars to leave their domains parked, by creating pages with commercial content of their choosing, or by using a third party domain parking service. Domain parking monetization takes advantage of type-in traffic, when a user types the "URL directly into their browser, and can be very lucrative when the parked site is highly trafficked. Domain parking does not necessarily have to be monetized as pages can be parked for a variety of reasons, such as the site being "under construction" or if the domain name has recently expired.

ICANNWiki is a small team of editors and contributors who have helped shape over 5,000 articles about ICANN, the DNS and Internet governance as a whole. Our goal is continue to create and collaborate on relevant and educational articles that serve as a touchstone for our community. An edit-a-thon is a small, but powerful tool to start, grow or edit the information on ICANNWiki, and build a community of contributors.
Changes can start small--create or fill in your personal or company page, fix a small error. Or perhaps you have some insight into the history and trajectory of the new gTLD Program? Or, you're at the forefront of initiatives such as NETmundial or have something factual to contribute to our IANA Transition article? Come to our edit-a-thon and choose your level of participation!
